Was this a smart purchase

I bought the following below. I got the 80gb for windows, my main drive for desktop and gaming, got the 120gb for bulk storage, movies music porn, ect. hehe. Got them both for $212 shipped. googlegear.com sure has some good prices, if your in the market for a new drive, even offer free 2 day shipping and no tax of coarse.

Western Digital Caviar Special Edition WD800JB 80GB ATA/100 7200RPM Hard Drive w/8MB Buffer

Western Digital Caviar WD1200BB 120GB ATA/100 7200RPM Hard Drive

I would say it's a good purchase. I've been running on a WD 80 gig SE, but I think it's dead now. I'll post a thread with the symptoms to get other opinions... I don't want to hijack this one.

...but yeah, loved the drive while it worked, now I get to test the WD Customer Service.

Seems like a good deal for both drives. I think a lot of 80Gb drives have been having trouble, I've RMA'd 2 Maxtor drives. I think they all seem to run hot. Maybe the WD's are better. Let us know what you think when you get them setup.

Good buy! I have WDigis in 80, 120 and 180G and not any trouble with them.
